I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not   36 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder(脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much   37 than others.
I hated going to school and I hated   38  at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing   39 and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the   40 and seeing an ugly and hunchback(驼背).
My friends found me   41 because I didn’t let other get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life   42 Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school—a spot where no one would
43 me. That’s when I first heard your voice.
“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” you asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No   44 .”
“I bet they’re playing games and make friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our   45 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)—until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, you saw my   46 . She just stared.
My heart   47 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would   48  me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 49 your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be   50 . I begged in my heart for her to   51 , but you just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answered   52 .
She bent and whispered in my ears.
“Your back is bunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was   53 . I looked into your eyes and her   54 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to   55 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind – hearted friend.

One day I decided to quit．I quitted my job, my relationship, my spirituality. I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the  36 to have one last talk with God． "Can you give me one good  37 not to quit?" His answer surprised me．
"Look around． Do you see the fern（蕨类植物） and the bamboo? When I planted their seeds, I took good care of them．The fern quickly grew from the earth．  38 nothing came from the bamboo seed． During the following three years, the fern grew more plentiful． And  39 , nothing came from the bamboo seed． But I did not quit on the bamboo． Then in the fifth year a   40 sprout（新芽） emerged from the earth． Compared to the fern it was  41 small and insignificant． But just 6 months later the bamboo  42 to over 100 feet tall． It had spent the five years growing  43 ． Those roots made it strong and gave it 44 it needed to survive． I wouldn’t give any of my creations a challenge it could not  45 ．”
He said to me． "All this time you have been struggling, you have  46 been growing roots． I would not quit on the bamboo．  47 will I ever quit on you． Don't  48 yourself with others．The bamboo had a different  49 from the fern． Yet they both make the forest beautiful． Your time will 50 ． You will rise high! "
"How high should I rise?" I asked．
"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked   51 ．
"As high as it can?" I  52 ．
"Yes," He said． "Give me glory  53 rising as high as you can．"
I left the forest and bring back this story． I hope it can help you see that God will never   54 on you． Never regret a day in your life． Good days give you happiness． Bad days give you  55 ． Both are necessary to life．

When I was a little girl, my father loved to play catch(接球) with me. I wasn’t very good at it,   16  we would play anyway. He was always telling me “Keep your eye on the ball” as I would not be able to catch even the   17  of throws.
As I got   18 , we didn’t play catch as much. If I had a problem and would go to my father to ask for his   19 , he would try to   20  with me and say “Keep your eye on the ball”. We would both laugh   21  usually that advice was not useful to the problem, but he would try to make me   22 .
My father became   23  in 1995 when I was 23. There weren’t any more conversations, as he suffered from a stroke(中风).   24  could not speak. He could only give   25  words, which were sometimes hard to understand. I seemed to be pretty good at   26  his lips(唇) after a while, even better than the   27  who were caring for him there.
During one of our last conversations, I was telling him about a problem I was having with my boyfriend.   28 , I could read his lips: “Keep your eye on the ball.” We both smiled.
That was the last time I saw my father   29  he passed away.

No One Is Too Poor to Give
When Teresa，a widow with four young children，saw a notice from her church for all members to gather to deliver presents and food to a 16 family，she took $10 out of her savings jar and bought some ingredients to make three dozen 17 ．She got to the church parking lot just in time to join the convoy going to the home that was to 18 the people’s help．
The route was 19 ，and she was astonished when the cars pulled up in front of her house．When the pastor saw her，he said，“ We 20 expected you to join us ,

科目：高中英语 来源：不详 题型：阅读理解

In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使……放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
